Overall sales of High Flow Oxygen Therapy Devices are predicted to reach US$ 1.4 billion by 2031, with a -2.0% CAGR from 2021 to 2031. With the rising prevalence of […]

By Tumininu Ojelabi Hassan Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease, which affects about 15 million Nigerians and ranked highest in Africa. Dr. Olawale Ogunlana, while speaking in an interactive session organised by Onehealth.ng described Asthma, as a chronic health condition and not an infectious disease, as this is the general misconception about asthma. “Asthma is […]

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers at the Scripps Research Institute examine stabilized, recombinantly expressed, soluble spike-protein trimers from the seven most prominent severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants to compare the N (asparagine)-glycan landscape and understand the interactions between the virus and host cell. Study: Evolving spike-protein N-glycosylation in […]

GREELEY, Colo. – Robin and George Cheesman have been married for 43 years and do their best to take care of each other. A few months ago, George had a close call. “He had a COPD (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) exacerbation. He wasn’t breathing. I went and found him not breathing in bed and had […]

A new TGA-approved rapid antigen test will add Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) to the list of viruses Australians can self-test for with a single swab. The self-testing nasal swab diagnoses three different viruses accurately within 15 minutes. Developed by Touch Biotechnology, the combination test is available now and will help combat the spread of COVID-19, […]

Scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed deep generative models to predict undiscovered sequences of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein. These hypothetical sequences could be useful for future pandemic preparedness. The study is currently available on the bioRxiv* preprint server. Study: PandoGen: Generating complete instances of future SARS-CoV2 […]

Extreme heat likely to worsen fire situation this week The current wildfire situation is likely going to get worse over the next couple of days as an exceptional early-season heat wave continues roasting Western Canada. May is traditionally the peak of wildfire season in Alberta, but this year’s fires are unlike anything we’ve seen in […]

THERE is an emerging menace in the air. It’s called microplastics — minute bits of plastic debris that result from the disposal and breakdown of consumer products and industrial waste. Microplastics, or MPs, are smaller than 5 millimeters, according to the generally accepted classification of the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Microplastics are […]
